[Pariksith_Babblu]

Name : Pariksith_Babblu

suggestion : In real life a car that is on can be drove by anyone , if this system comes to IC the car that is on and the owner is not aside the car can be taken by another and use it . system now we have is like we need keys to drive a car that is already on . if this come it will be like real life

Edit by Harry

Working

• after certain exp, player can crack a vehicle for once only, regain more exp to do this again.
• everyone can drive a cracked lock vehicle
• the lock will be repaired with vehicle repair
• a cracked vehicle can sold after 3 days to dealer only

Concerns

• how do owners secure their vehicles?

it will be rare to get your vehicle stolen, but when it does, you will receive a email alert if you are offline, you can later file a case with sapd to find the vehicle as soon as possible and repair it.

• can we have houses with gates?

houses which have parking area, we will add gates and link it with house lock system.

This is cancelled for now

@IORP It seems like a good suggestion and a general need for cop vs criminals as well as p2p interactions and worth implementing, but as per the suggestions below i would like to add some more details to this.

%(#FF0000)[Disclaimer:-] This suggestion is written by keeping in mind that it will take time in creation and implementation, Hence it will contain everything in details and suggestions for new items.

Required removals:-

• “Where is my car?” option (from the owner, because of “Car tracker system”. [system details are at the bottom of this post.] )

• “Change car locks” option (from the owner, because its the work of mechanics now)

Vehicle owner’s security:-

• Car can’t be hotwired if its locked. and will be required to keep car locked if not in use.

• To break locks, a robber must have some special items required to break locks (we can provide these items at some shop which can be accessed by mafias, and mafias will trade those)

• Owner can buy a car tracker and add those to his car. (this is a new item, will be elaborated at the end of this post) °fa-info°(Described at the end of this post)

• Enhanced alarm system, if car alarm is toggled then cops will be notified about this. (if no cop ig, then email or discord alert is necessary. OR sapd database must keep those events logged.)

• Owners have to get the locks changed via mechanic once they recovers their car.

Robbers requirements of work:-

• They must have 2,000 EXP, and required items to break locks. (they can do it once, they have to gain 100EXP to do it again and so on.)

• They can remove owner’s car tracker with the help of a corrupted mechanics by bribing them (only Level 1 tracker, level 2 can’t be removed or damaged) °fa-info°(Level1 and Level2 trackers are described at the bottom of this post).

• They can sell the car to any nearest dealership at 50% return when they’re successful for keeping the car hidden from 36hrs of robbery. (by keeping the car hidden from the cops who are in search of the car)

• Vehicle owner will not be having “Where is my car?” option anymore.

How cop can work in this?:-

• They’ll require the help of car owner, owner have to toggle car tracker which can help cops to get the car recovered

• Once found, they have to Tow the car to nearest SAPD HQ. (must impound if tow truck is far from you)

• If they succeed in catching the robber, they have to impose a 20k fine and 10min of jail. along with this they have to inquire about the corrupted mechanic if they can and catch that mechanic as well. then do same with the mechanic.

• They’ll get a option stating “Recover car” when they reach any SAPD Reserved parking. when clicked, the car will said to be recovered and owner can collect it from the cops.

Now its time for elaborating what is a Car Tracker:-

Car tracker:-

• Its a new electronic item, can be seen at every elec shop.

• Tracker will be containing 2 levels.

• %(#00FF00)[Level 1]:-

|- Description:- Simple car tracker, can give only location info like, car is at Vinewood etc.-|

|- Cost:- 25k-|

|- Expire:- 30days -|

|- Installation:- Only mechanics can, owner have to get it bought and installed by mechanic. OR they can buy these and give to mechanic to add in their respective car. -|

|- Note: Expiry date will start count only when tracker is installed, since the item is storable. -|

• %(#00FF00)[Level 2]:-

|- Description:- Premium car tracker, gives red map icon of car’s current position (just same as WHERE IS MY CAR? option) -|

|- Cost:- 50k -|

|- Expire:- 40days -|

|- *installation process AND note is same as in Level 1. -|

• Why to have this item?, Well to keep the gameplay realistic i guess this item gonna make the game feel more realistic which will lead to p2p interactions as well since the owner have to help cops for searching by interaction and robber have to get it removed by mechanic.

• This item can be stored in Bagpacks, House interiors, and in Mechanics HQ.

• Can be removed by mechanic as well (only when owner/robber is sitting at driving seat.) And only Level1 can be removed.

I hope this suggestion contains enough details so that this system can be implemented, however if i missed any or there is something else. please quote that thing and post your corrections/suggestion.

for the car robbery, players can use lockpicks which can be crafted by mafias using those aluminium and copper ( i remember seeing these in shipyard i guess material shop is the thing), they can use it themselves or sell them and as usual crafting, selling and buying those would be illegal and law enforcement can arrest them for that

lock picks can be used to crack the lock and then players can hotwire the vehicle
cracking the lock would trigger the car alarm that would trigger the cops

@iorp locking/unlocking the vehs by /p meothod

[IORP]

@Priyanshu_Aggarwal review this suggestion.

[IORP]

let me know if there are any more concerns.

[Pariksith_Babblu]

@iorp oki this is good .

[IORP]

@pariksith_babblu that is no,

imo, we can add gates to houses, which have parking area and link them with house, players who have house keys can access the gates as well.

[Pariksith_Babblu]

@iorp can introduce like black market where to sell the stolen bikes and dirty money (robbed money )can be exchanged .

[IORP]

@iorp said in Suggestion on stealing vehicles:

@pariksith_babblu this need more suggestions and clarification on all use case.

more suggestion means, solutions all concerns like how owner can secure vehicles.

[IORP]

@pariksith_babblu no, dealers have powers to register new vehicles, so the vehicle identify will be erased when sold to dealer.

[Pariksith_Babblu]

@iorp if it is sold it cant the owner get again ?

[IORP]

@pariksith_babblu this need more suggestions and clarification on all use case.

[Pariksith_Babblu]

@iorp then we need a gate system to home so the owner only can access it or by applying password , and y cant we track where the car is then it will be a big disadvantage sir . !!

[IORP]

and after like 3 days, the vehicle can be sold to dealer only.

[IORP]

@pariksith_babblu yeah that’s the problem, maybe add a crack status on vehicle, if the vehicle lock is cracked, everyone can use that vehicle and owner can not locate the vehicle. The crack will be repaired after we do repairing of vehicle.

[Pariksith_Babblu]

@iorp will the keys from the owner get ruin?

[IORP]

we can add something like, gaining experience points, and after certain points, player can rob a vehicle for once, in robbing process, we will allow the robber to have keys of vehicle.

[Bhaskar_Bose]

my similar suggestion:
we can change the lock system like the vehicle cannot be accessed only if the person locks it …and people with keys can lock and unlock vehicles we can add a keybind like L than can let us lock and unlock vehicles out side vehicles
we can add a hotwire system that enables car robbery and cops can get blip of the robber for a while just like our store robbery
